I guess the reason I'm here is, I want to let out some things I've been holding in for a while, kinda an obvious thing to say though okay I'll just start. I'm pretty young, right? Not gonna say my age because it's kinda irrelevant but that's besides the point. I feel really empty inside. not even like fully utterly empty but god it's terrible. I have so many people around me who support me, so many who care for me, and yet, I feel alone. I'm not gonna attribute this to them, it's my own fault. I've never had a 'real relationship' with anyone, at least not in the romance sense and it makes me feel awful. almost my whole life I've felt like I've never felt true intimacy of any kind, maybe due to my own intelligence (really not trying to sound narcissistic) there's been some kind of invisible gap between me and others, or maybe it's some kind of self imposed gap created because of some underlying sense of superiority, but regardless, it's there. --Psi--
